Soap in the bath every two days (this kind of weird baby soap with nothing inside : extra soft, hypo allerg, no tear soap, no soap !).

Temperature 37.5 +/-0.5 °C

Dip the small stuff slowly inside the water, holding him firmly by the shoulder with his head on your fore-arm.

Gently wash the body using hands only including his armpits, his bum his head and his face (Don’t be afraid to get water his eyes and ears)

Take out and drain. Make sure each single fold is dried.

Dry inside and behind the ear with a small piece of cotton (one piece for each ear that is you can admit not very environmentally friendly…). Make a small rocket with a piece of cotton to clean inside the nose. Clean his eyes with a piece of gauze and liquid stuff we need to buy, always swiping gauze from the outside to the inside, towards the nose (Don’t forget to take pictures of baby screaming and daddy sweating throughout the whole process)

Ask for the mother to clean the umbilical cord while you look through the window wiping away your sweat.

Give him Vitamin K (one syringe dose per weak, each Monday, as long as mummy gives breast) and Vitamin D (4 drops per day, during 18 months)
